LSU played some of its best basketball in the last few minutes the game. Louisiana Tech went on a 10-0 run in the second half to get within five, but after the technical fouls, LSU seemed to get somewhat of a wake-up call. La Tech tacked on a final basket as the clock ran out. LSU won by 15 points but it wasn't an easy victory by any means. The game was very physical, with both teams constantly at the free-throw line.

1:52 -- LSU 66, La Tech 47

Louisiana Tech just called a timeout to stop the bleeding, but LSU has run away with the game in the last few minutes. Barrett and Graham made consecutive layups as LSU has extended its lead to 19 points. All of LSU's reserve players are in at this point as La Tech goes to the foul line.

3:34 -- LSU 59, La Tech 47

La Tech cut it to a five point game, but LSU has been playing lights out during the last two minutes. Katherine Graham hit two free-throws and Adrienne Webb added a three-pointer to quickly pull away again.

7:18 -- LSU 48, La Tech 39

This game just got very heated, very
quickly. LSU's LaSondra Barrett got fouled as she drove to the basket
and put the ball in. Barrett then got a technical foul called on her. La
Tech made the two free throws and then Barrett made hers.

La Tech brought the ball down the court and quickly
afterward, LSU's Courtney Jones and La Tech's Adrienne Johnson got into a
heated argument and had to be separated by the officials. The
officials deliberated for several minutes before deciding to call double
technicals.

While they were reviewing the play on the monitor, the P-MAC crowd got extremely loud, chanting LSU as they waited.
